Bomber D is going to eat the riders alive

ofc this is the week we don’t have a second fullback

Could it not have been dehydration/overheating in addition experiencing the injury? +30, plus all those people gathered around him. Would make it pretty hard to catch your breath if overheated Dehydration on its own would actually be best case scenario. It’s scary, but one recovers quite quickly with an IV

Godamn, I hope this isn’t it for him.

They shouldn’t yet. Maybe turn on their GM for going all in on Trevor Harris again. I still think Sask took a step in the right direction regardless of how this year ends up for them, bringing in guys like Mace for HC and Dan Farthing in the front office. Got rid of a lot of dbag players too and brought in better character guys like Hardrick and Sayles. That being said, **** em. I hope they don’t win another game all year.

Useless observations from last nights game. 1. QBing across the league is really bad. 2. Janarion Grant wearing an Argo jersey is a travesty 3. The Argos DL ripped off Willie’s guitar solo celly (that tbf he kind of took from Woli) 4. Rod Smith didn’t even do PBP during the play, he just extends the name of whoever has the ball and explains what happened after the fact. “ Chad Kellyyyyyyyyyyy” *dead air while the play happens, pass gets completed and the WR gets tackled* ….. ”has Ungerer and ___ makes the tackle” I couldn’t imagine a duller broadcast.

I don’t want to make a prediction, but if they’re going to hang 40+ on anyone this year..

I’ll take Gauthier in for Bighill if it means Woods and Adams on the field at the same time for the majority of snaps.

I’d love to see Ferguson with Matty on the regular.

I agree that TSN doesn’t have a great PBP right now currently. I still think Marshall could be one in time. Cuthbert was pretty raw in the early 90s and he became one of the all time greats. I don’t mind Gord Miller, but he has this habit that someone else on here mentioned before of using an incredulous tone on nearly every play. I’d still agree he’s currently better than anyone they have. Rod Smith has always been terrible on PBP. He’s a pure desk host. Neilson clearly loves the game, I’ll give him that. He’s just got too much of an obnoxious middle schooler vibe in his voice for me to ever be a fan, and he feigns confusion as a gimmick.

To each their own. I mean that’s the thing about broadcasting voices, it’s very subjective for the most part. (Except Suitor obviously) I’ve always preferred the drier type of PBP, especially for TV. Don Wittman was a master of when and how to use emotion without going overboard. Same with Irving. Mark Lee was really underrated too I thought. Marshall Ferguson is my favourite currently on TSN right now for the same reason, though he’s still pretty raw and he usually gets really dull east games.

Whoops, Brian Munz. Or Paul Edmonds I don’t know. I’m not a huge hockey fan. The the radio guy for the Jets. POW POW POWERPLAY GOAL.

I for one was more bashing TSN’s idea of Rourke than the player himself. I’m not sure one way or the other but does anyone know if Rourke is Ben Cahoon Canadian or actual Canadian?

I hated him as a PBP announcer after the first game. He reminds me of a young Paul Munz.

I can’t stand that guy. I know some like him, but I’d seriously rather have Rod Black calling the games. And I HATE Rod Black calling the games,

CBC did the best job of making the game itself seem like a big deal.

Camera work yes iirc, or at least very different angles to what we were used to. Have to hard disagree on overall quality though. Sportsnet announcers were even worse than current TSN, like Rider radio broadcast level bad.

That about sums it up. He’s young enough that he could take another 5 years to mature and still do very well.

Yeah O’Mahoney (rip) and Jamie Borham were bad but they played like a combined 3 games here. Westwood was awful when they tried him there at the tail end of his career. I don’t recall a punter worse than Sheehan lasting even close to this long though.

The Riders I guess (as HC/DC they had a good Defence). Anywhere he was before the latest run in Edmonton. Super overlooked point. How many times this year has the opponent started on their own 40 or better and Bombers hold to a FG attempt or punt. It’s really outstanding how few points they’re giving up with literally the worst punter the team’s had in the last 40+ years.

Idk, Jones is a dildo, but he’s a good DC. It’s when he gets roster power that he messes everything up. I think it’s an ok move honestly. I think they’ll improve. They have more talent there than their record shows. Calling it right now, someone’s upsetting them in the cup or EF. Could even be us..

We should probably give him a break. He just got back from the war and his HOF induction ceremony ran late into last night. Then they try to run on a second and 10 later and get just fisted. Glorious.

Cool perspective. I always like to hear about the experience in other stadiums. That’s actually one thing I’ve noticed going to games in a few other CFL cities, there’s some pretty rough stadium PA announcers. We’ve been lucky in that department. Bob MacGregor and before him Mo Renaud, both fantastic.

He’s got the quickest apology in CFL history.
